Lincolnshire

Located along I-94 in Lake County and 38 miles from downtown Chicago, the Village of Lincolnshire was incorporated in 1957. The residential character is largely one-half acre lots and larger with most of the residential development located east of the Des Plaines River. West of the river, a growing commercial and corporate office tax base includes Marriott Resort, several restaurants and retail areas and a corporate center which is home to several Fortune 500 companies.

Encompassing both Highland Park and Highwood, Fort Sheridan is nestled among the lakes and ravines, distinguishable from any other Chicago suburb. It's a sought after community to raise a family, or relax and enjoy the surroundings as an empty nester. Residences include new and historic single family homes, as well as townhomes, condos, and duplexes.

Fort Sheridan is ideal for homeowners seeking outdoor activities and enjoying nature. The community has its own beach access; popular hotspot for biking; trails for hiking and running, playgrounds, and forest preserves within a short walk.

Some of the finest dining on the North Shore is within walking distance in downtown Highwood. A convenient Metra station provides access to the Loop, Ravinia Festival, and the rest of the North Shore. The shops of Highland Park and Lake Forest are only minutes away!
